100. Worship
After drinking tea, Zhao Yongan casually picked up the recipe and flipped through a few pages, then pointed to the dishes on it and asked Huo Bufan some questions.
His questions are very ordinary, nothing more than how to stir-fry the best dish and how to deal with the ingredients.
It's useless to just buy recipes to please people, the most important thing is to see if you have real talent and learning.
Fortunately, Huo Bufan is quite accomplished in cooking, and several questions asked by Zhao Yongan have been satisfactorily answered.
Huo Bufan not only answered how to fry the best food, but also casually talked about the relevant customs and folk anecdotes.
He spoke vividly and interestingly, Zhao Yongan, who listened to it, laughed a few times from time to time, and in the end, he even asked Huo Bufan to cook and fry a few dishes.
Zhao Yongan didn't let the ingredients bought from the vegetable market use them, and all kinds of vegetables were planted in the big yard, and they could just pull them out if they wanted to eat them. Fresh and green.
Huo Bufan fried mushrooms and vegetables, vinegared mung bean sprouts, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried lotus root and so on.
They are all very simple home-cooked dishes, but they are made by his hands, and they are full of color, flavor, and flavor.
Even Zhao Yongan applauded: "The jade plate is delicious, beautiful, and this cooking skill is better than mine." β
Huo Bufan smiled humbly and handed Zhao Yongan a pair of chopsticks.
After Zhao Yongan first took a chopstick tomato and put it in his mouth, and sighed with satisfaction after tasting it, Huo Jiaming moved the chopsticks.
After taking a bite, he looked at Huo Bufan in surprise.
It's not because the food is delicious, but also because the taste is very similar to the taste made by the third brother in his memory.
You must know that the process of stir-frying may be similar, but according to each person's mastery of the heat, the combination of condiments, including the speed of the pot, will lead to a little difference in taste.
Huo Jiaming's sense of taste is very sensitive, he can easily taste twenty kinds of large glasses of brine calculated at 0.01 milliliters, and the taste he has eaten is generally not forgotten.
Serve him a dish, and he can easily tell you which restaurant the dish came from.
In the words of the uncle, a natural foodie.
"Mr. Li, your cooking skills are very good, and you are not much different from my third brother. If he knows that there is someone in the world who can make the same taste as him, he will definitely become friends with you. Huo Jiaming said.
Huo Bufan glanced at him and said, "Your third brother, is it Huo Bufan?" β
"Of course." Huo Jiaming said with pride on his face: "That is the star of hope of our Huo family, and the recognized successor of the next head of the family." In this world, there is no one who can compare with him. Of course, I mean young people, and grandmasters like Zhao Lao are naturally not included. β
Zhao Yongan laughed and said: "Huo Bufan's kid is really powerful, you don't have to please me, in literature, maybe he and my uncle, but compared to business, I can't catch up with him on horseback." β
Huo Jiaming smiled and said: "This is true, the third brother's business mind is invincible, with him, the future of our Huo family is limitless!" β
These words are somewhat complacent, and in the past, Huo Bufan must have reprimanded him twice.
But now, he is not Huo Bufan, but Li Shuheng.
"I've heard of this guy too, how is he doing?" Huo Bufan asked.
"It's very busy, I haven't seen him for almost a month, and I heard that he seems to have taken on an important project and is working on it with an independent team." Huo Jiaming has no doubt about him, and he is very straightforward.
Huo Bufan's eyes narrowed slightly, his relationship with Huo Jiaming was very good, if even Huo Jiaming hadn't seen each other for a month, then there would be even fewer opportunities for others to meet.
Are you afraid of revealing your feet?
The so-called important projects, Huo Bufan scoffed, just a stand-in, what can he do? It is nothing more than delaying time and giving the real culprit behind the scenes a chance to control the Huo family.
However, these words can't be told to Huo Jiaming, if he really said that it was a stand-in, I'm afraid Huo Jiaming wouldn't believe him at the first time, but would jump up and beat him up.
Because he was the one he admired the most, and no one would be allowed to humiliate him.
"I wonder if there's a chance to help introduce you? I am very curious about the legendary Huo family's hope star, and I want to see with my own eyes what kind of genius he can deserve such a high honor. Huo Bufan said.
Huo Jiaming listened to it and said: "Of course my third brother deserves such an honor, he has done something shocking and eye-catching, and he can't finish it for three days and three nights." If you want to see him, I can help introduce him, but maybe not recently, after all, he's so busy right now that I can't even see him. β
"It's okay, I'm patient." Huo Bufan said, took out his mobile phone and said to Huo Jiaming: "In this case, let's exchange WeChat or contact information." β
Huo Jiaming also had a good impression of this person who was knowledgeable and had almost the same cooking taste as the third brother, so without too much hesitation, he scanned Huo Bufan's WeChat and even gave him his private number.
is still the casual and naΓ―ve character, Huo Bufan took back his mobile phone and chatted with Zhao Yongan again.
With the friendship of a meal, the relationship between several people seems to be much more familiar, and Huo Bufan has in-depth research on the way of talking, and the atmosphere is excellent when chatting.
It wasn't until one o'clock at noon that Tang Shiming stepped forward and reminded, "Old Zhao, it's time for a nap." β
Zhao Yongan is close to eighty years old, although his body and bones are much better than ordinary old people, he still has to sleep for a while at this time of day, otherwise his energy will not be able to support it.
He hummed and smiled at Huo Bufan and Huo Jiaming: "I'm old, and I often feel sleepy, so forgive me." I'm still very happy today, it's rare for two children to be so pleasing to the eye. By the way, Shuhuan, do you know how to play Go? β
"Yes." Huo Bufan nodded.
Zhao Yongan said: "Then come tomorrow morning and play chess while drinking tea." β
Huo Jiaming hurriedly said beside him: "Old Zhao, I can also play Go, why don't you call me." β
"You?" Zhao Yongan glanced at him and asked, "How is your chess skills better than your father?" β
"A little bit worse than him...... Really, just a little bit! Huo Jiaming said.
"Your dad is a stinky chess basket, you are not as good as him, and you are boring." Zhao Yongan said.
"But you don't know how Mr. Li's chess skills are, what if he is not as good as me?" Huo Jiaming said aggrievedly.
Zhao Yongan laughed and said, "You stinky boy, who did you learn to bite." But I can make a bet with you, tomorrow you will come to the next game with Shuhuan, and if you can win, I will cook for you to stir-fry and eat. If you can't win, you'll have to be a chess pick up boy for a day. β
"Compare to compare!" Huo Jiaming was very unconvinced.
Zhao Yongan looked at Huo Bufan again and asked, "What do you think?" β
Huo Bufan smiled faintly and said, "You can make seven and a half sons." β
Zhao Yongan laughed louder, but Huo Jiaming blushed.
In Go, even if you give half a piece, or even take the first step, it is a great advantage.
Seven and a half sons, it can be said that there is an absolute gap between masters and novices.
Being so despised by a person who met for the first time, how could Huo Jiaming be happy, so he said to Huo Bufan: "Don't think that Zhao Lao praises you, you are really amazing, I have won the top ten in the country for Go teenagers, in terms of chess ability, not to mention the level of the early stage of the profession." When the time comes, don't be unconvinced! β
Huo Bufan still smiled lightly and said, "See the real chapter on the chessboard." β
Zhao Yongan clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay, young people must have this kind of blood, and they can't be ridden by others and beg for perfection." Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, the two of you will decide to win or lose on the chessboard. Whoever loses, there is no food to eat at noon! β
After the two agreed, Zhao Yongan got up with Tang Shiming's support, and then walked towards the bedroom.
The hosts are all gone, and it doesn't make sense for the guests to stay, Huo Bufan, Huo Jiaming, and Wang Hanyi also went out.
When leaving, Huo Jiaming was still a little unconvinced and said to Huo Bufan: "Although you are a bit similar to my third brother, don't think about letting me release water to you when I play chess because of this!" β
Huo Bufan glanced at him and said: "If you win or lose, you can't hold your breath, if you win, today's words are reasonable, if you lose, won't you even lose the people leading the formation?" The boss is not small, and he must always learn to be calm and sharpen his temperament. β
"I ......"
Huo Jiaming subconsciously wanted to refute again, but looking at Huo Bufan's expression, demeanor, and listening to his tone, there was always a strange feeling in his heart, as if he was being taught by the third brother himself.
This feeling made him instinctively not dare to say more, and invisibly, the momentum was suppressed.
